♉ Taurus Emoji
[ tawr-uhs ih-moh-jee ]
The Taurus emoji ♉ depicts the sign of Taurus, a constellation and one of the 12 zodiac signs in astrology. It is commonly used to represent Taurus, people whose zodiac sign is Taurus, and astrology in general. According to astrology, people who were born between April 20 and May 20 have Taurus as their sign. For this reason, you’re more likely to see the Taurus emoji ♉ used during this time as people celebrate their birthdays.
Taurus is commonly known as The Bull (Taurus is Latin for “bull”). The Taurus emoji ♉ usually depicts the symbol of Taurus, a circle topped with horns used to represent the head of a bull.

Where does ♉ Taurus Emoji come from?
The Taurus emoji ♉ was approved under Unicode 1.1 in 1993. On most major platforms, the emoji resembles the symbol of Taurus (a glyph that resembles the head of a bull) colored white imposed on a geometric shape. On Apple, Samsung, WhatsApp, and Facebook, the Taurus symbol is on a purple square with rounded corners. On Microsoft, the purple square has sharp corners and is surrounded by a black outline. On Google, the Taurus symbol is instead on a reddish-orange circle.
On X (formerly known as Twitter), many people put the emoji representing their star sign next to their usernames in order to identify themselves. As is the case with all of the other zodiac signs, this is also true for the Taurus emoji ♉.
When the Taurus emoji ♉ is used, it is often accompanied by the word Taurus itself. This is likely done to help identify what the symbol means, as it may not be familiar even to fans of astrology. Taurus is commonly known as The Bull and so the Taurus emoji ♉ is frequently used alongside the Ox emoji 🐂.
